Going to China!

Dear Friends,

I only have a few minutes, but I wanted to drop a line.

I completed the Korean language course, and graduated on Friday! That was so much more difficult that I had bargained for, and is a relief to have over and behind me!

I’m taking off for China in an hour and a half (which is why I don’t have much time here). I’ll be there for a month, visiting friends, and getting a much needed rest, and then I’ll be coming back to Korea. I hope to work in an orphanage here, this summer. It would be a great way to practically apply my newly acquired language skills.

I wish that I’d had time to write earlier, and make this a longer email, but these last two weeks have been crazy. Had my finals last week, and am leaving two days later. It’s not just packing for a visit to China that keeps me busy, though, but packing to move out of my house. Since I don’t know where I’ll be living when I get back, I got rid of all my things, save two suitcases and four small boxes. A friend is keeping what I can’t take to China. So moving house, taking finals, and packing to move to China have made it next to impossible to do much else.

I may not be able to check my email, while I’m in China. So if you write, and I don’t reply, that’s why. But I don’t mind returning to a full inbox! =)

Please keep me in your prayers.

God is very, very good…
